I know right? BFBC2 was the game which finally introduced me to online multiplayer gaming. I’ve always loved gaming but through a series of circumstances had missed out on online gaming through my youth and during most of my twenties I’d dabbled in things like COD only to hate it because I was so shit at it compared…

Thanks for your reply. No I didn’t play beta (the released the beta whilst I was holiday in tropical paradise) .....my impressions are all second hand and while I’m taking them with a grain of salt, I’m also judging from past experiences with looking at pre release gameplay and marketing hype to form my sceptical.…

I missed out on the Beta because I was away. I hear a lot of people were happy with the Beta and it brings me hope, becaseu I’m not feeling this game yet. I mean, the Star Wars fan in me is excited, but not the gamer in me.

Problem is, DICE has been lowering their Multiplayer quality since Bad Company 2.....their attempt to grab some of the COD type players who like smaller maps and no team play seems to have diluted their product in my opinion. There is something about this game that just put me off - I’ll buy it but I’m not expecting…

So they did all that work making it really authentically starwars feeling, looking and sounding game, with the models and sounds and shit, and then I have to play the game with that much un-star wars trash on the fucking HUD? Fire your HUD designers DICE...how much fucking real estate does that ugly trash take…

Yeah, I also wondered why more wasn’t made of her in the first story either. She was the one with the initial fixation and the more I watched the initial video the more pissed off she looked. Her hubby just wanted to thigh slap to what passes for humor at those events.

It’s a pretty standard trait of human society, and the societies that are progressing in regard to it are still few and far between.

Short answer: no.

You’ve pretty much got it.

I’d like to see more context of the before and how he got into that position before I pass complete judgement, but yeah, running rather that shooting would have been my course of action. Easy to say though, but it does disturb me that shooting is like an instinctive reaction....this guy sees an SUV speeding towards…

Eh, he’s socially awkward, arrogant, driven and loves himself. Hardly the first sportsperson to be like this. Why do fans of sport like to ridicule the results of their often sycophantic culture.....from an age far too early for their developing brains to cope with, talented young boys and men are told they are gods…

In Russia, goal looks at you. What, that’s not how it goes, is it?

“She’s an A list celebrity you ass.”

Haha, I understand what you meant, even though some people can nit-pick at the way you said it. You’re right. This guy made a small fortune off of Woods, and nothing he had to do to earn that fortune sounds anything like a hard time....he’s a big fucking baby and always was one. He’s always come across as a fame whore…

I’m more inclined to agree with you. If you watch enough YouTube for the Red announcement to annoy you, then either pay for content or get over it. I understand the concerns about how the deal is going to effect the content providers but let that be their problem if they want to sign up to be behind a pay-wall.... the…

Hmmm, sounds like all the disrupting kids you went to school with effected more than just your ability to know more math.

I agree that this Messi example is a problem because he influenced play to such a significant interfering degree in front of goal, and this is a major problem with how I think the rule is interpreted today and how I think it contravenes the spirit and intent of the rule. But I don’t think this compares to what Ozil…

Soccer rewards laziness? I think you’re completely missing the spirit an traditional nature of the offside rule. I have major problems with the offside rule as it stands, (I think there are too many instances an attacker in an offside position is interfering with play by being a distraction or visual impediment) but I…

You know what, you may be absolutely right. It’s entirely possible I read what I wanted to out of this article because I believe “some games” would benefit. I may have let that strong opinion cloud my judgement in backing this guy’s “all games” argument.

I can think of a significant number of significant contemporary games that would work fine if you’re allowed to skip missions - it’s not a straw man to mention them no matter how many others you can find that wouldn’t be able to work this way, because the point of the article assumes the context of only talking about…
